D. Michael Wilson

This profile gathers the share dealings of D. Michael Wilson across 3 companies, led by FMC Corp, Ingevity Corp and Albemarle Corp. We count 72 filings; the first trade dates from 23 February 2006 and the latest from 6 February 2020.

Both buying and selling appear: 8 purchases worth €906k, against 14 sales worth €7.2M. Sales outweigh purchases by €6.3M. Buying on the open market means paying the going price with one's own funds, a different act from receiving shares as pay. Outside the open market, there are 38 share grants and 12 option exercises. In 2020 alone, the filings show 3 purchases and no sales.

A typical purchase (the median) is worth €79k. Clusters matter here: 3 out of 3 purchases overlapped with buying by a colleague within 30 days. A cluster is several different insiders buying the same stock within a short window, a pattern studied more closely than a single purchase. After 8 purchases with a full 90-day history, the hit rate stands at 63% and the median 90-day move at +0.2%. Past outcomes like these are no guarantee of what comes next.

Most recently, on 6 February 2020, the filings show an open-market purchase worth €148k in Ingevity Corp. The median gap between a trade and its publication by SEC (Form 4) is 2 days. For comparison, the SEC allows two business days to file a Form 4. Sales are harder to read than purchases, since they often meet personal needs such as tax or diversification. This summary is built from SEC (Form 4) disclosures alone and does not predict where the share price will go.
